Au Ra physiology and other lore.

My guess is that the Au Ra Naming Conventions will be released within a day of the Benchmark.

Benchmark is coming on Monday the 27th for the record (officially confirmed at the Niconico thing).

Yeah I'm expecting the naming conventions around when the Benchmark is released. Which, being soon™, is a good thing. Have names thought up for my Raen already, just need to know if they fit into the conventions.

Seems Male Au Ra can also have backward facing horns. Will update with a benchmark pic in a bit.

Man, some of those Xaela eyes are kind of unsettling...

Am I the only one who is bothered by the way the horns sit? They look like they have been placed on top of the character rather than protruding through the hair. It was the same thing for Yugiri in her cameo.

It only looks that way, the horns come out of the side of the head like ---| <--this more or less so it seems like the aren't attached, its more obvious when looking at it from a proper angle

Hmm... It seems like the horns styles are bound to the face type you choose?
If that's the case, that's quite disappointing; I was under the impression that they'd be more customizable than that.

I noticed this in the benchmark trailer, but it appears that the 4 types of horns we've seen so far are the only types and are available on both genders and subraces.
